I have taken my friends here from China and from Singapore, and they love it as well. This little cozy place gets the Asian seal of approval. The owner puts on a one man show -waiting, cooking, and running the whole operation. He is really sweet and makes the place feel so homey and inviting. The menu is great! I personally love the DanDan mein (noodles with peppery sauce) and the zhajiangmian (noodles with soybean sauce). The guo tie (fried dumplings) are also an all time favorite here. He also as some really traditional dishes like jellyfish and a fungus dish. All in all, they too are delicious. So if you haven't already figured it out, Tasty Noodle is an amazing one man show for everyone to have a glimpse into the street foods of Chinese cuisine and just absolutely tasty food.

After we were done saying none, we were seated by in a table for two with hearing proximity of our neighboring tables. Yes, this was another intimately spaced restaurant in Europe. Hungry for something warm and hearty, we picked this simply named Edinburgh eatery. Garlic Tonkotsu ramen and Takoyaki were our shared plates that evening.

The service was pretty quick and I did appreciate that everything was custom and made to order and that you could choose a specific combination of noodles, sauce, and meat/veggies. The atmosphere and dishes weren't the fanciest, but it was very affordable and in a convenient location close to the University of Edinburgh.

There was plenty of chicken (which is good), but the noodles were so offensively bland that I couldn't stand eating them. I genuinely suspect that cardboard would have more taste.

While I have had pho from Saigon to Hanoi, and am a therefore a little hard to please, I'm more comparing this to other asian food I've had in the UK and US. Even by those standards it is pretty weak. I ordered the Bun Bo Hue - a fabulously rich and spicy beef soup from Hue in central Vietnam. The noodles were tough and bland, and the soup, while well spiced, seemed to lack the depth of flavor that I've come to expect from Pho. Would maybe go again to try the bahn mi or other options.

Summary: A chic and well designed "pho" place that offers mixed feelings…read more If you want traditional Vietnamese Pho, this isn't the place for you. The flavor is drastically off and the ingredients used to make their pho are totally different. However, IF you are into a fusion form of Pho, take a chance and try this place out. I, clearly, wasn't a fan of the pho here. The noodles had this weird earthy taste while the broth lacked the flavor of beef. The broth was on the sweet side and clearly made to suit western tastes. Coming from Los Angeles, I was really surprised how the dish I had was called pho. However, the ONE thing I did like about the pho was that the beef they used was high quality and tasted amazing. The beef was juicy and tender, as if it would melt in your mouth! Service is dodgy. The servers here offer you service based on what you look like and how you dress. When my friend tried to order her dish while I was in the restroom, the waiter apparently told her "Not now I'm busy". However, when I called him over after returning from the restroom, it seemed as if the gold chain on my neck turned me into a "vip" client. He quickly took my order and apologized to my friend for his error. My personal experience with the service is good, but others might have it differently. On a side note, it seems like my friends really like their stir fried rice noodles. I have yet to try that--but from what I heard they are DELICIOUS.

We ordered the beef rendang which was fork tender and delicious. The sauce was rich but contained a bit too much onions for my liking. The hainese rice was a good side to soak up all the sauce. It was the same price as regular bowl of boiled rice. The char kway teow was served with a good mix of seafood, chicken and veggies. The noodles had a nice chew and overall a nice smoky flavor.

Has good reviews but our experience was half good and half quite disappointing. Surprised to find that reservations were expected but that's my mistake for not checking. But they were able to seat us right away. Service was prefunctory. Menu with a nice selection of dish options. My DW loves Bun so that was her choice even before arrival. She chose the noodle with grilled meat option. I was looking for something with seafood and chose the stir fried noodles with mixed vegetables and seafood. My first clue we might have some disappointment was the speed that the food came out. It was literally not even five minutes before two entrees were served. Hmmmm. The Bun turned out to be just fine and she enjoyed it very much. Mine on the other hand had way undercooked vegetables, including very strong onions, noodles that were not completely hot as well as seafood in the same condition. All the seafood-tiny pink shrimp, mussels, and calamari was pretty clearly pre cooked and just given a quick spin around the pan. The mussels especially were not a pleasant temp for this dish. I ate it without complaint but also without enjoyment. Not sure how they have such high marks but it was not really the case for our meal.
